If it's an problem parsing config, it would be best practice to
throw an exception or error, but for future reference, if you
want to terminate execution use Runtime.terminate from
core.runtime, followed by C's exit from core.stdc.stdlib.
Runtime. terminate will do cleanup and allow the program to
shutdown properly
